Art Scene West Gallery is pleased to present over thirty paintings encompassing California Landscapes by artists Darrel Mcpherson and John Cornfield. A gallery reception will take place Saturday, April 30th from 3p.m.-7p.m.. Darrel McPherson has been an active painter for over 50 years and his works have been collected globally and shown in multiple galleries across the country. Ranging in artistic style from impressionism to figurativism, McPherson consistently inspires viewers with his soft color palette and dreamy landscapes. John Cornfield has been studying drawing and painting for over 20 years, including workshops with many of the top plein air artists in the country. Inspired by an older generation of Southwest and California Impressionists, his landscapes follow in their unique use of color and form. John’s paintings are found in private and public collections and have been exhibited in galleries in La Quinta, Santa Monica, Montecito, Miami and Sonoma. This exhibition is representative of a fresh energy and excitement in the Solana Beach Design District, where Art Scene West Gallery is promoting local art creation and collaboration.

For over 60 years, Dr. Seuss’s illustrations have brought a visual realization to his fantastic and imaginary worlds. His artistic talent went far beyond the printed page and yet, to this day, his artistic talent is virtually unknown to the general public. Throughout his lifetime, Theodor Seuss Geisel (aka Dr. Seuss) created paintings and sculpture. EC Gallery will share a compelling selection of artworks from The Art of Dr. Seuss Collection at the EC Gallery, Solana Beach. Visitors may explore and acquire works from Dr. Seuss’s best-known children’s books, as well as a mind-expanding collection based on decades of artwork. The concept drawings included in this historic exhibition offer a rare, behind-the-scenes view into Theodor Seuss Geisel’s (aka Dr. Seuss) artistic process. They exemplify the transformative power of ideas and how, in one quick stroke of a pencil, ideas can change the world. With simply a pencil, paper, and his trusted drawing table, these never-before-seen characters passed from the ethereal to the tangible in a series of frenetic, bold, and highly impulsive concept drawings. These were dress rehearsals. They were the first spark of an idea and marked the inception of such iconic characters as The Cat in the Hat, Horton, and Sam-I-am. Each of these Estate-Authorized limited editions has been adapted and reproduced from Theodor Seuss Geisel’s original drawings, paintings, or sculptures. Additionally, each work bears a posthumously printed or engraved Dr. Seuss signature, identifying the work as an authorized limited edition commissioned by the Dr. Seuss Estate.
